Right. It appears that dream was short lived! I got too caught up in designing the frame and mountings for things to think about wether the base use was achievable with one machine. It's not. I wonder if there is a nice graphic representing use Vs machine design for CNCs somewhere. If not maybe I'll sketch one..

Moving forward:
I'll send cad files to machine shop for the mechanical prototypes.
The machine and budget have been reduced to wood only, I wonder how much precision it's possible to wrangle out of a 3040 machine..
